Jordan Brand will unveil Air Jordan 13 “He Got Game” in Summer 2018

Jordan Brand is set to bring back the iconic Air Jordan 13 He Got Game for its fourth release for the 2018 Spring/Summer lineup.

This is one of the only OG’s to be made more famous by someone other than Michael, where it received its nickname and notoriety from Spike Lee’s classic basketball film He Got Game.

This Air Jordan XIII colorway originally released in 1997 – the only Jordan 13 to release that year, with the others releasing in 1998 – it makes this colorway even more iconic. it made it’s first return in 2008, again in 2013 and once more for 2018. With all these retros pairs with the cult following of SPike’s classic film, it’s safe to say that this is and will forever be a Jordanhead favorite.

For those of you unaware (or were too young to recall) of the “He Got Game” reference, Jake Shuttlesworth (played by Denzel Washington), a prison inmate, gets sent on a mission to convince his son (Ray Allen), a star High School basketball player, to play for the warden’s alma mater in exchange for a shorter sentence. One iconic scene of the film features Jake shopping for a pair of kicks, and without hesitation, he requests the new Air Jordans to which he is presented with the now classic Air Jordan XIII colorway.

Last seen in 2013, this marks the fourth time the shoe will become available. Dressed in its original White, Black and True Red color scheme. This Air Jordan 13 features a White tumbled leather upper with Black appearing on the toe, midsole and heel in leather and suede. Finishing off the design are True Red accents on the tongue and outsole.
